Get started

Use this path for your first productive week. Details for each area are on the later pages.

1. Open Cadence — Jira → Apps → Cadence.
2. Confirm your calendar — On Calendar, use Day or Week view. Issues appear from the calendar’s JQL and date field (due date by default). Drag an issue to another day to reschedule that date field.
3. Add a real-world event — Click New event. Choose a type such as Meeting, Focus time, OOO, or Milestone. Save. It appears beside your issues.
4. Run Week Compass — Open the Week Compass tab. Set or confirm your roles, add a few Big Rocks for the week, and jot Renew intentions (Physical, Social, Mental, Spiritual). Click Save Compass.
5. Place Big Rocks on the calendar — Click Place Big Rocks on calendar so Focus blocks reserve time for what must move.
6. Plan tomorrow with ABC — In Week Compass, open Day Plan. Use Pull Big Rocks, then rank items A (must finish), B (important), C (optional).
7. Check Today — Open the Today tab for today’s events, due-soon issues, reminders, and anything that needs RSVP.
